RNA doesn't need proteins nor does it need DNA.

RNA probably came first. And it is known that RNA can form peptide bonds which can make proteins.

DNA would have come later.

They don't need each other, from an evolutionary standpoint. Modern DNA and RNA and proteins are interlocked, but earlier forms clearly weren't.

How does mRNA lead to new viral particles?

mRNA is a "message" that is transcribed into proteins. The proteins form the capsid and other proteins the virus needs. The virus also needs genetic material so it can propagate in other cells.
